Damn. I didn’t know it had such a following. There’s one a mile or so from my house and I don’t know that I’ve ever been.

Have you ever lived outside of EBR or traveled to a country other than Mexico? If not, it is very difficult to explain. For some reason people in Louisiana north of Alexandria love it. As in they would knock over their mother and grandmother to get a fresh pie from Johnny's. It's a bit disturbing. And Europeans LOVE Johnny's. A customs worker in Amsterdam, front desk worker in Montreal, and a bartender in Madrid all got really excited when they saw my ID was from Louisiana and asked (excitedly), "Do you know Johnny's???" Probably some of the weirdest experiences in my life, which is saying a lot. The pizza isn't bad, but it's not something I would expect to have such a large international following.
